    Ndi I.

    Order anything besides jollof rice, egusi soup, meat pie, beans and stew at your own risk. The above items seem to be on standby or always ready. Dare order stock fish, curry chicken, tilapia, even shrimp fried rice or some other item that is actually on the menu and you're on your own. The wait times can be over an hour. Believe me, I've experienced it. With the people (cooks?) in the kitchen also working as cashiers. It is ridiculous. Don't go there when you're hungry. Take my word. Do not. Thankfully there is another location in Bowie, smaller, but so far, seems better than Riverdale.

    Egusi soup with fish. I had eaten half of the fish before I took the photo. Yes. It was that good.

    If egusi soup with fish is your thing, you have hit the sweet spot when you eat food from this restaurant. I have had the same dish on two different occasions from this restaurant in the last two months. The food was just as good each time. Consistent authentic cooking, well seasoned and inspiring. The first time I had the egusi soup with pounded yam. This time, perhaps because it was close to closing time when my food was picked up, I only got egusi soup with fish; They were out of pounded yam. I relished every bit of the food. A single order of egusi soup with two fair sized pieces of fish cost me a total of $10.34. Sure, they could have used a little less oil but this meal was worth every single calorie. If service were as consistent as the egusi soup, this restaurant would deserve more than a five star rating for food and service.

    Just ...... don't eat here I just wanted some good food and didn't have time to do research so I picked this one and well . I placed an order via DoorDash, I even called to let them know I was in my way with my food when I arrived I had to wait like 30 additional mins. I would suggest that the should get curtains to cover their kitchen because all she is literally doing is reheating the food in the microwave ............. plantains take like 5 mins to fry sis. Nothing tasted fresh at all.... it was as if the cooked five days ago and don't want the food to go to waste. They also gave me the wrong order. The egusi had no real flavor. The fish smelled like it was going bad. Overall not coming back place is gross she did not cook with love

    Jollof rice with beef, to go.

    UberEats review…read more Service: given the distance of the restaurant, the order took a bit long but it was packaged well so nothing spilled and the food was still still fresh and warm. Dish: I ordered the spice wings with a side of jollof rice and spinach Efo-Riro. OMG! So let's start with the wings, the flavor on these wings were the right balance between rich spices and touch of sweetness. There was a hint of honey lingering on my tongue after it was greeted by a strong spicy flavor. Adding to this, the wings were fried to perfection with crispy skin resting on the top and smooth white meat down to the bone. AMAZING! The jollof rice was stellar! And while I do not know much about the perfect preparation for this dish to review if this is the best, I've had a few from various West African countries and can say that this one had that grainy texture with just the right spices mixed in. The spinach efo-riro was SO good. I honestly could have had a plate of this by itself and my taste buds would still be pleased. Overall, this place is very generous with their serving sizes. Well portioned, beautifully prepared, seasoned to perfection, and a sure trip down culture lane! I enjoyed it so much.

    Ah ah so THIS is what we are doing now in the DMV? A whole WEST AFRICAN BUFFET??…read more Listen ehn, I have been to Jollof Etc before for regular dinner so I already knew the standard of food there is not play play. But seeing them attempt this buffet concept for Valentine's Day, Easter Sunday (when I went), and now again for Mother's Day this Sunday? I actually respect the initiative Everybody is always shouting rubbish this ____, and rubbish that ___ meanwhile OUR OWN cultural foods are sitting right here in Silver Spring looking delicious and full of flavor. When I say all the staples were THERE, I mean THEY WERE THERE Amala Moi moi Pepper soup Jollof rice Fried rice Everything hot, fresh, flavorful and tasting like somebody's mother entered that kitchen with warning And can we discuss the drinks please?? Non alcoholic but SWEET, refreshing and pairing perfectly with all the food. Very family friendly atmosphere too. You can bring auntie, uncle, cousins, everybody Now let me tell the truth small because you know I don't lie for reviews The wait time? Hmmm. Table organization? They can improve that one too because people were kinda just standing around confused at moments. BUT no wahala this is still a new venture for them and honestly I can already see the vision. The most important thing for me? Their service was AMAZING and they accepted feedback very well instead of doing attitude. That part matters. I actually want to see this succeed because we need more innovative African food experiences in the DMV that push our cuisine to the forefront instead of acting like only tacos and burgers exist outside Jollof Etc Silver Spring, Maryland

    Terrible service. No greeting, rude staff, and $32 for mostly rice with only three tiny pieces of…read moremeat. Not worth it!
